e100 Challenge- Day 72- Growth and Persecution- Acts 3:1-4:37



"When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus." Acts 4:13

In today's reading, we again see the power of the Holy Spirit taking over Peter and John. These men's lives had been radically changed by this man called Jesus!  The religious leaders knew they could not stop this movement from growing. Something powerful had taken over these mere fisherman and was rapidly spreading through the city of Jerusalem. 

Questions to Ponder...
1.) Why do you think the religious leaders were astonished by what they saw in Peter and John?
2.) What does this say about who God chooses to do his work?
3.) Why do you think the believers were "all one in heart and mind?"

Ways to Pray...
God please use me today to spread your message to those who do not know you. Father I am yours, use me as you please!
